Old Postcard- Ford Rotundra- Dearborn, Michigan
"The Ford Rotunda consists of an imposing gear-shaped central section from which rectangular wings extend to the north and south. The circular section is 215 feet in diameter. In its center is a court 92 feet in diameter, which is open to the sky.
The Rotunda is built of Indiana limestone and steel. Its construction required 114,000 feet of cut limestone and 1,000 tons of structural steel."
